A Cross-Platform System Editor for Freelancer (Written in Python)

I just got it right, I made a Y - Z-Swap in 3 Vertex-Decode-function ... and voila.

Just need to fix those "floating" doors, the position (example: Rochester Base) is not right.

After that I can create a documentation and start implementing the 3d models inside my 3d system view.

Puh.

...

i think i fixed any cmp issue, every modell looks like its from the game, next step is finishing my 3d system editor.

Just wanted to show off an Rheinland battleship and noticed ... that my loader wont show it.. so im not finished yet.

Made a little v0.6.4 release with some updates:

Releases · flathack/FLAtlas · GitHub

v0.6.3 -> v0.6.4 - Changelog

Added

• Native 3D object viewer and CMP inspection were expanded into a much more capable workflow:
  • structured native CMP decode diagnostics and mesh-family analysis
  • texture/material handling in MeshPreviewDialog
  • jumpgate/jump object preview support
  • mesh visibility toggles, better contrast controls, and optional back-face culling disable
  • dedicated 3D viewer delivery/documentation in 3dobject_viewer_doc.md

• Trade Routes were expanded into a real balancing and workflow tool:
  • dedicated market analysis dialog
  • cargo-based net profit and profit-per-jump analysis
  • local/inter-system route typing and stronger system filtering
  • direct deep-links into goods.ini, market_commodities.ini, source/target systems, and source/target bases
  • market editor/analysis actions directly in the trade-route sidebar
  • market editor previews for route impact and source/sink handling

• INI Editor was expanded into a much stronger modding workspace:
  • source-aware tree labels for mod, vanilla, and install
  • direct counterpart navigation between overlay and fallback files
  • file compare dialog with section-aware summary
  • Find usages across mod and vanilla roots
  • file status summary and compact one-line editor status bar
  • section inspector for structured key/value editing
  • basic validation hints for duplicate identifiers and empty values
  • pasted-from-clipboard.png
• Mod Manager gained EXE version management and dedicated Mod Settings runtime/page support for EXE offsets.
• pasted-from-clipboard.png
• Added a project-local launch.cmd for starting FLAtlas directly from the repo checkout.

Changed

• Native scene/runtime handling for 3D preview and system integration was refactored further:
  • more detailed debug-state snapshots in MainWindow and view_3d
  • clearer exposure of native preview render/detail state in the UI
  • more robust CMP loader architecture with family-aware metadata and structured decode plans
• Trade-route internals were decoupled further:
  • runtime helpers moved out of main_window.py
  • route payload/filter construction is now more modular and testable
• INI Editor workflow was tightened around the editor itself:
  • status information is now compressed into a single summary line instead of a large multi-row info block
  • compare, validation, navigation, and structured editing are now grouped around the main editing path
• Release/build hygiene was tightened further:
  • .gitignore now also excludes the dedicated release virtual environments and architecture-specific build output folders

Fixed

• Fixed CMP/native preview issues:
  • corrected CMP orientation handling
  • fixed CMP transform hints so part names/translations are shown correctly
  • improved handling of relative UTF offsets and legacy VMeshRef layouts
• Fixed trade-route correctness issues:
  • routes with implicit base-price buyers are now included correctly
  • weaker but still valid local/system-filtered routes are no longer dropped too early
  • unreachable routes are no longer shown as fake 1-jump connections
  • trade-route navigation hides non-implemented _miner leftovers and other invalid destinations more reliably
• Fixed INI editor ergonomics for heavy editing sessions by reducing header noise and keeping detailed path data in tooltips instead of a wide info panel.

Now working on 3d system viewer

Trying to get it perfectly, mats are not sitting correctly, stations are not perfect yet, but work in progress
